I found two slabs that we needed last year and I'm so glad we looked at all of them because I almost settled for one that was not "perfect" - had black splotches, which I was assured could be left out of the final placement. But right below that one was the "perfect" one. You were right to put your name on the two you wanted.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13178290697351352495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320167217139525439.post-85162108463489222402009-12-11T14:54:42.080-06:002009-12-11T14:54:42.080-06:00Granite is apparently fantastic for baking.

I blame any of my botched baking projects on my lack of granite countertop.Sydneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14740877135009167937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320167217139525439.post-75343195406200792252009-12-10T20:42:23.749-06:002009-12-10T20:42:23.749-06:00So great to see the whole slab - they always look ...So great to see the whole slab - they always look so different than the tiny sample square!

Mine is black with orange/red/beige/gray spots, and it is next to impossible to find a raisin or chocolate chip on it. :) I picked out the slab as well, but they didn't need to move any of them for me - that sounds like an interesting experience.Colettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16562242552148150493noreply@blogger.com
